Another Democrat Comes Out Against the Tariff Bill. The Income Tax Measure Has Been Fully Dressed and Will Make Its Debut Today. By the Associated Press. Washington, Jan. 18. The moat significant event in the senate today wa the announcement of the resignation of Senator Walthall, of Mississippi. It was totally unexpected and when it waB laid before the senate with a letter from the senator announcing that he had forwarded his resignation to the governor ot Mississippi, the greatest surprise wag expressed 'on all sides. Walthall is 63 years old and succeeded the late L. Q. C. Lamar in the senate nine years ago. flis resignation causes general regret among his colleagues, as Walthall is very popular. The legislative session was short, but it gave opportunity for the introduction of two resolutions from Populist senators condemning the bond policy of the administration and later in the day in the discussion of the Stark monument appropriation. The latter was passed by a vote of 32 to 15. Morgan and Daniel took occasion to express disapproval of the proposed bond issue.. The remarks of Vest on the elections bill were entertaining and in his usual pointed style. "The law." sail he, "was based on the assumption that officials of the United States are better than the people of the country, an assumption that when you take a citizen of a state and clothe him in ted eral uniform and authority he becomes a better and more intelligent man. Public sentiment is such that state legislation cannot be enforced. The same will appiy to legislation coming from the national government." At the conclusion of Vest's remarks the senate went into executive session and a few minutes later adjourned until Monday. In the House. Washington, Janl 18. In the house the consideration of the tariff bill was resumed. Johnson, Democrat, of Ohio, offered his amendment placing on the free list railway bars made in part of steel. rails and girders, street rails and punched iron or steel flat rails, which in the bill are dutiable at 25 per cent, Mr. Johnson explained his amendment by saying that a steel rail pool existed by which it paid steel rail mills to close their works and it gave them a mo nopoly of this production. He said: It ib generally admitted that no revenue will be produced from putting a duty of 25 per cent on them." The ways and mean committee' did not claim it would produce a revenue and be asked the house either to put steel rails on the free list or show a good reason for not doinz so. Springer asked Johnson, who is him self a Bteel rail producer, whether placing rails on the tree list would drive rail manufacturers out of buii ness, to which the latter replied it would not. Its only effect would be to rednce the profits of mill owners. ihat s what you are here for I sup pose, interposed uoutelle. sarcastic- allv, "to reduce your profits." 1 am not here voting money into the pockets of my stockholders," returned Johnson emphatically amid applause, i our patriotism has an element of improbability about it,'' retorted Bou telle. In further replv to Springer. Johnson Btated that his mill was not store favor ably situated than others ; that it is in about the center of the steel rail pro- auction. Dalzell, Republican, of Pennsylvania. proceeded to attack Johnson. The steel rail production, he said, was an Import ant industry in eleven states and the proposition was to place steel rails on the free list aud leave billets and blooms out of which they manufactured, dutiable at 25 per cent. "Was this just," he asked, "to the steel rail industry, the most splendid monument of production? Under its beneficent operation the price of rails has gone down from $50 to $25 per ton." "The price went down here; what brought it down abroad?" asked Johnson. . "Inventive genius, stimulated by the establishment of the industry here," replied Dalzell. "Wages paid abroad," continued Dalzell, "are 40 per cent lower than here, but any argument based on the present price of rails is fallacious because of the depressed condition of business at this time." "Johnson," he continued sarcastically, "sought to give strength to his plea for free rails on the ground that he himself is a manufacturer; he sought to give the impression that he is in competition with mills in an alleged trust but as a matter of fact he is only a manufacturer of street railway rails and he has a monopoly of that production." Laughter and applause "There are two other firms which make street rails," said Johnson. "Two others," retorted Dalzell, con temptuously, "you are practically a monopolist an the same." Dalzell went on to say that he held in his hand copies of 102 patents issued to Moxham, president of Johnson's company. They gave him the moBt complete and dspotic form of protection. Yet, from behind that wall of protection he assumed the role of a philanthropist and wanted to take protection away from producers of railroad rails who cad no patents. (Republican ap plause.) Dalzell went on severely criticizing some statements made by Johnson a few days ago. The scrip with which he is paying his men, Dalzell said was at a heavy dscount. Continued Dalzell: "When Johneon stated the other day on the floor amid plaudits from the Democratic side, that that Eci'ip had been redeemed at a premium he ftated what was nut true, and he knew it. He went to the stenographer and changed what he said so as to make it read "they redeemed it at par.' The gentleman from Ohio struck out the words, but be did not strike out the 'applause' which thev evoked." Laughter and applause. At this point the house took a recess until 8 o'clock tonight. At the night session Sibley, Democrat of Pennsylvania created something of a sensation by a little speech against the Wilson bill. He said he did not believe that the tariff made or unmade prosperity. He would support, he declared, a revenue tariff bill such as was demanded by the Chicago platform, but he would never vote lor this bill, wnilcb. was a hybrid, half free trade and half protection, with the vices of both and thevirtue8 of neither. Other speakers were McKeigban, Re publican, of Nebraka, Da Forrest, Democrat, of Connecticut, and Russell, Republican, ot Connecticut. The Income Tax Agreed UDon. Washington, Jan. 18. The full text of the internal revenue bill including the income tax has been agreed upon by the Democratic members of the wavs and means committee. It is probable the measure will be submitted to the house tomorrow. As yet the details of the income tax have not been made public. The Associated Press is able however to give a very complete suin- marv of the essential features of the tax as it will be submitted to the house. The bill provides that the income tax shall go into effect on January 1, 1895, aud the first collection on incomes will be made on July 1, 1895. All classes of incomes are included in the measure and a uniform rate of two per cent tax on incomes over $4,000 is fixed. It is made obligatory on all persons receiving incomes of over $3500 to make returns to e local collector of internal revenue. These returns are gone over by the revenue collector and a tax list ib then made up of those whose incomes exceed .$4,000. No tax ia levied on those making returns of above $3,500 and under $4,000, but the committee deemed it expedient to leave a margin of $500 below the exemption point in order that the returns might be eure that all subject to tax may be included. In the case of a person having an income of over $3,500 who fails to make returns, it becomes the duty of the revenue 93essor to make inquiry as to the amount of the person's income. If the examination discloses an income above $4,000 the income is subjected to twice the ordinary tax and the party failing to make returns i9 deemed guilty of a criminal offense and is made subject to a fine and imprisonment. The main purpose in framing the above provisions has been to avoid the inquisitorial operation of the law. The committee believes this will elo away with the necessity of having assessors prying into the private business of people unless the latter have taxable incomes and try to evade the law. It is estimated that not more than 85,000 persons will ba subjected to this tax, so that the great majority of citizens will not have to make returns. Provision is also made by which no information can be made public as to details of income reported by citizens. Any public or private person who divulges any part of the information concerning incomes is made subject to criminal prosecution with a heavy fine and penalty. Particular provision is made for the collection of the income tax due on salaries not only of officials but on individual salaries received from business firms, corporations, etc. An individual receiving an official salary sloes not pay the tax and it is made the duty of every government, state, county and municipal disbursing officer to retain two per cent of all salaries oyer the taxable amount. This two per cent will be taken out of the salaries in balk at the last payment of the salary for the year. The tax upon corporations includes every phase of corporate stock. This tax is general and without the $4,000 exemption allowed individual incomes. It it provided that including the tax on corporate stock the corporation shall pay the tax and deduct the amount from the dividends of ttock holders. It is made the duty of each corporation to take two per cent of each annual corporate income from the amount tet apart for stockholders and pay the total to the internal revenue collector in that locality. Severe penalties are provided for failure to make proper reduction from the dividends of stockholders or for failure to make return to the revenue collector. The entire business of levying and collecting the tax is placed in charge of the deputy commissioner of internal revenue. Different revenue districts are also provided with deputy collectors, who will especially manage the collection of the income tax. The measure finally agreed upon is a detailed elaboration of a plan for an income tax proposed some months ago by Hall of Missouri. Ladies' old shoes made to look like new ones.

The Specials are to be Given a Start of Five Hours. The Club Officials Expect a Heavy Loss but They Will Take it Out of the Skin of the Governor. By the Associated Press. Jacksonville, Fia., Jan. 18. Corbett and Mitchell will meet and fight it out within thirty miles of Jacksonville, a week from to-day. The battle will not take place in this city ; that is a certainty. The Duval Athletic Club claims that while Governor Mitchell's firm ttand against the fight is illegal and arbitrary, it effectually disposes of all chance of pulling off the mill where the thing could be made a financial suc cess, in this city. Under the moat advantageous circumstances the receipts will not pay the liabilities iccurred.' It will have cost the Duval Athletic Club $36,000 to put Corbett, Mitchell and Referee Kelly in the ring next Thursday . President Mason today told a representative of the Associated Press that the los9, whatever it may be, will be shared in equal parts by each of the five men who have monetary interests in the undertaking. "We shall fight the men," continued Mason, "a week from today and go down into our pockets and make up the difference between the receipts and disbursements and then attend to Governor Mitchell in a manner which will teach him that laws are not formed in the brains of arbitrary cranks." It is admitted by members of the club today that a piece of ground beyond the jurisdiction of state, city or county officials has been selected on which the battle is to take place. A portable platform is now in course of construction.A number of special trains, probably four, of ten coaches each but with the privilege of engaging every bitof rolling stock in the service is already contracted for from a railway company having Jacksonville as a terminus. President Mason alleges that a further indemnity of $50,000 has been filed by the railroad company as a guarantee that no one not designated oy the club shall pass over the road within five hours after the last special leaves Jacksonville for the battle ground. There can be no doubt as to the sort of ground the club has selected. There are many strips of territory adjacent to Jacksonville in which the prerogative of Governor Mitchell would be inoperative. There are Indian reservations new here on which the governor would ba powerless to interfere. Anastasia island, for -instance, recognizes the authority only of a United States marshal and seers predict that the international battle will take place there not far from the cottages occupied by Mitchell. It appears to be reasonable certain that a circus tent will cover the spectators. Thinke It's no Co. Denver, Jan. 18. J. J. Qninn of San Francisco, in a letter to "Denver Ed" Smith, urges Smith to work for a S;ht with Peter Jackson and says if the fight can be arranged he can secure any sum of money up to $59,000 to place on Smith. In the letter Quinn refert to Charley Mitchell as a "back number" and says Corbett will win easily in not to exceed eight rounds. He gives Corbett credit for being a far better man in the ring than either Jackson, Mitehell or Sullivan who claims to have a challenge for the winner of the Corbett-Mitchell fight. The fight, Qiinn thinks, will never take place in Florida either in public or private. The Place Announced. Jacksonville, Jan. 18. The location of the battle ground has become known to a few persons outside the Duval Athletic club. It will be in Nassau county directly north of Duval county, between, the town of Fernandina and the city of Jacksonville. Fcrnazdina is a little over twenty miles from Jacksonville on the Florida Central & Peninsular railroad. The tite of the battle ground will be within six miles of Fernandina near the village of Yulee. Should the sheriff discover the place of the meeting other sites have been ar- arranged for and the crowd can be taken to one ot them within an hour's notice. It has been decided to fix the price of tickets for the contest according to the size of the crowd present at the train on the morning of the battle. The club officials eay that $25,000 ia wanted to clear them from debt. Should 1,000 people be present $25 a ticket will be charged and in a corresponding ratio. Planning the Fight. Washington, D. C, Jan. 18. A Republican senatorial caucus was held today and wat quite generally attended. The caucus was devoted to a discussion of the policy to be pursued by ths K: publicans of the senate with reference to the federal electiona bill and the billt for the admission of the various territorial which are seeking to enter the union as states. No conclusion was arrived at except to refer the entire subject to the advisory committee appointed at the beginning of the regular session. A Hlght-oned Horse Thief. Los Angelks, Jan. 18. Last Friday Detective Anbel arrested a finely dressed stranger on Spring street near the JNadeau Hotel. The arrest was kept a profound secret until to-day when requisition papers arrived from Catskill, N. Y., fur William M. Mulligan for the theft of two blooded horses at that place. Mulligan was awell-to-do blacksmith at Catskill. Why he stole the horses is a mystery at he had plenty of his own. At the time of hi arrest he was makinz a dicker for a blacksmith shop at Pasadena. Sheriff frank . Decker will arrive tomorrow to take back hit man. His wife who belongs to one of the best families in New York is almost prostrated oyer the matter. McAulIffe's Challenge Accepted. San Fbancisco, Jan. 18. Young Mitchell, middleweight champion of the Pacific coast, has wasted no time in considering Jack McAuliffe's challenge and he accepted the challenge tonight.. Jim Ryan, the Australian, wants another chance at both Mitchell and Me- ' Auliffe and issued challenges to that effect today. Prisoners Recaptured. ' Solomonville, Ariz., Jan. 18. Deputy Sheriff Ben Olney and posse captured four of the six prisoners who broke jail yesterday. Two are still at large, Manuel De Olla for stabbing a woman at Morenci, and Pantaloon, a dynamiter. It is believed they will be captured. Serious Illness of Ceo. W. Chllds. Philadelphia, Jan. 18. Geo. W. Childs, the philantropistand editor and proprietor of the Public Ledger, is said to be seriously ill and grave fears are entertained regarding his condition. THE NEW BONDS. No Great Stir Created on Wall Street. Brokers Generally Believe in the SFavorabla Action of Con?reo3 on Carlisle's BUI. By tae Associated Press. New Yobk, Jan. 18. On Wall Street the proposed new issue of bonds did not do so much as was expected, in advene--ing prices and ealarging the volume of business. There wa a raid on General Electric and Rock Island stock which broke down values but some other shares showed advances. r , The general expression of leading financiers of this city is favorable to the success of th TvertirTnt Inn n and it is predicted that it will be subsciibsd for many times over and that bids will in the msjorjrv. of ca?es ran? from. 117 to 113, brokers a small margin of profit and the last affording the investor better terms than by buying the present government issue at current quototions. In view of the fact that the bonds are issued for g3113r.1l subscription the be-jict is eXprSabov. jj uirujG that l.-iua.ft and national banks will not be very largely represented among the bidder for the reason they would be likely to wait for the contemplated issue of three per cent bonds which it ia believe Congress will authorize, as affording icALcr prOuL. It is a very general feeling that very few of the bonds will be taken by foreign investors as American capital can afford to bid higher than foreign competitors. MiniNTPB FAIR. Preparations for the Grand Opentns Nearly Complete. San Francisco, Jan. 18. The installation of the heavy machinery of the midwinter exposition is progressing rapidly.

Special commutation tickets for the ex position consisting of books containing 100 admissions are now ready for delivery. The price ia $40. The horticultural congress will be held on April 24, 25 and 26. The Iowa state band arrived here this morning. FAVORABLE TO THE REBELS. Pelxoto Becoming Suspicious of the Fidelity of His Soldiers. Buenob Ayres, Jan. 18. Advices from Rio say that the insurgent war ships continued the bombardment of the batteries at Nictheroy on the night of January 15 and killed 50 of the government forces. Tbe government force will make an attempt to capture the island of Vianna with a view of preventing the insurgents from renewing their stores there.

The full text of the internal revenue bill including the income tax has been agreed upon by the Democratic members of the wavs and means committee. It is probable the measure will be submitted to the house tomorrow. As yet the details of the income tax have not been made public. The Associated Press is able however to give a very complete suin- marv of the essential features of the tax as it will be submitted to the house. The bill provides that the income tax shall go into effect on January 1, 1895, aud the first collection on incomes will be made on July 1, 1895. All classes of incomes are included in the measure and a uniform rate of two per cent tax on incomes over $4,000 is fixed. It is made obligatory on all persons receiving incomes of over $3500 to make returns to e local collector of internal revenue. These returns are gone over by the revenue collector and a tax list ib then made up of those whose incomes exceed .$4,000. No tax ia levied on those making returns of above $3,500 and under $4,000, but the committee deemed it expedient to leave a margin of $500 below the exemption point in order that the returns might be eure that all subject to tax may be included. In the case of a person having an income of over $3,500 who fails to make returns, it becomes the duty of the revenue 93essor to make inquiry as to the amount of the person's income.
